每日金句
“你若和我们同去,将来耶和华有什么好处待我们,我们也必以什么好处待你。”
—民 10:32
"If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us."
—Numbers 10:32
在西奈的帐幕住了一段时间后,以色列民终于准备好起程前往旷野了。在耶和华的云彩带领之下,每一个家族分别列队前进。他们出发时,摩西邀请他的妻舅何巴与他们同行,何巴熟识旷野的环境,他的见识和领导,肯定会对以色列民有帮助。
摩西邀请何巴,不是单单为了何巴能为他们做的事情,他也是为了以色列民可以与何巴分享的好处着想的。摩西说:“与我们同去吧,‘因为耶和华指着以色列人已经应许给好处。’”摩西知道神必定会祝福以色列民,他希望何巴也能经历这祝福,摩西邀请何巴,好让他能在以色列民属灵的产业上有份。
有时我们会抗拒与人分享我们所信的,因为我们觉得自已好像在勉强他人接受某些东西那样。然而,当我们与人分享耶稣基督的好消息时,我们乃是在邀请他们前来经历神的恩典和慈爱呢,神呼召我们要时常不断与人分享祂的好消息和慈爱。摩西应许何巴:“将来耶和华有什么好处待我们,我们也必以什么好处待你。”与人分享神的好处,时常都是我们与神一同生活的一部分。
你可以邀请谁、前来与你同走恩典和信心之旅呢?一位朋友或亲戚?神的恩典既是如此美妙,我们实在不应该单单据为己有,让我们把它传开去吧。
After a long period of camping at Sinai, Israel was finally ready to head into the wilderness. Each family group marched in line, with the cloud of the Lord leading them. As they set out, Moses asked his brother-in-law Hobab to come with them. Hobab was familiar with the desert, and the Israelites would benefit from his skills as a guide.
Moses' invitation wasn't made just for what Hobab could do, but also for what Israel could share with him. Moses said, "Come along, 'for the LORD has promised good things to Israel.'" Moses knew that God would bless Israel, and he wanted Hobab to experience that. In this way Moses was inviting Hobab to join in the spiritual inheritance of Israel.
Sometimes we resist sharing our faith because we feel like we're pushing something on someone else. But when we share the good news of Jesus Christ, we are calling others to come along and experience God's grace and love. God calls us to keep sharing his good news and love with others always. Moses promised Hobab, "We will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us." Sharing the good things of God is always a part of our living with God.
Whom could you invite to come along on the journey of grace and faith? A friend or relative? God's grace is too good to keep to ourselves. Let's share it.
